The Call!

It was the final day of my summer job. Everyone was busy and it was sort of a crazy day. At 12:14 PM my phone rang and it had an odd number with an area code I didn't recognize. It took me a minute to realize that this could be the call. I went outside to answer my phone and missed the call. We played a little phone tag but she finally caught me. It is always surreal to me to get the call. I feel totally numb, like it isn't really happening. It also takes a while for the excitement to set in. I feel bewildered and disbelieving for a while before the reality hits. Of course I was at work all day and had no way to get to my email to check for the referral info and Will was at Devil's Lake with the boys and was completely unreachable. It was a long day and it was good that I had so much to get done. Figures that the call would come on the busiest day the whole summer. I was so excited to hear about our little girl.
